Institutions like this need to be decentralized and relocated. The office space they use in the DC area could instead be used as rental income for taxpayers. Might upend the echo-chamber culture at the same time.

Where a person spends their money is where their heart is as well.

And reason for so few political contributions to Republicans or Conservative Political Organizations is that the few conservative workers at the CDC know that it is a job promotion killer if they were to contribute to conservative organizations.

Every government bureaucracy is full of Democratic voters. The only way to change this is to eliminate whole sections of government jobs, or return to the spoils or patronage system.

It won’t happen because the Republican Party is run by a bunch of gutless fools, who like being pinatas for Democrat partisans.

Let me see if I got this right. The government confiscates money from me under threat of force and imprisonment. They take that money to pay a bunch of lazy-ass leftist employees. They in turn donate my previously confiscated money to causes/politicians that I am diametrically opposed. The politicians then provide increased salaries, benefits and a higher quality of life for the leftist lazy-ass employees, in which as they can afford to use more of my money to donate to same causes/politicians again.

I should also note, after very quick research, the CDC in Atlanta employs thousands of union employees. Last year the American Federation of Government Employees won a settlement against the CDC that pays out $11 million to over 2,400 CDC employees. The quick math on that is about $4,500 per employee. I'm sure it less since the corrupt union and lawyers will get their cuts. The point of writing about this is that it is nearly impossible to fire lazy ass government employees, and even more impossible to fire union scum government employees. These people are takers. They run their scams through taking from makers and using that money support their unions and politicians.

Make it a point today to abuse anyone that is employed in a government position that actively takes away your freedom and liberty or makes it more difficult to run your business. The acid test: Can you live your life without that government employee providing some service to you? For me, it's not every government employee, but it is very large number.

We always hear how political leanings don’t affect the way people do their jobs, right?

Never forget...“Diversity is our strength.”

Except when it comes to freedom of thought

It would be news if it were in any way different.

MAGA types do not go into government, social justice, community reform, or other such occupations. These vocations are the province of ostensibly altruistic liberals who do not share the view of American exceptionalism.

Looking for MAGA employees in FedGov is like looking for cannibals in a Buddhist monastery.

I know it isn't a perfect solution, but I think it is time to take political affiliation into account when hiring for government jobs. By this I mean create a quota a la the diversity BS, only according to political party. So a third would be hires with a Democrat affiliation, a third would be Republican, and a third would be indie. Look into campaign contributions and political group affiliations to verify that the applicant is what they say they are. This business of virtually every government hire being a DemocRat/Leftist has to end as the outcome is predictable - the government lackies are definitely a big part of the problems in this country.

Now we know why we have falsified Corona cases and are all wearing masks. They are part of the DNC campaign.

Close the essentially worthless, often dishonest cdc. It is a bunch of highly paid lefty losers who should be unemployed.
